Movies

I've seen 2 movies in the last week. On Mother's Day, we all went to see "Young at Heart," a documentary about a senior citizen's chorus from Massachusetts whose repertoire includes such old favorites as "Should I Stay of Should I Go" and "I Wanna Be Sedated." Very funny at times, but sad at times too, and though the old people and the guy who runs the chorus are great, the narrator is kind of irritating. I'd still recommend it though.

On Saturday, we saw Iron Man, which was just a blast. I've always liked Robert Downey Jr., and he's really in his element in this. The suit and the technology are to die for. At one point when he's working on a impressive and very cool-looking computer system, Ronnie nudges me and whispers "My birthday is in 2 1/2 months." The action scenes are great and don't go on forever so you never get overloaded and it's very funny. I felt like I was dragging Ronnie because it's an action-adventure kind of thing, but she enjoyed it to.
